My parents brought me there on the pretense of it being an "amusement park," which I put in quotes because I can only use the term loosely. Picture a version of Epcot Center where instead of foreign lands there are just representations of all the parts of Sweden. They had the cow farm, the wheat farm, AND the carrot farm. The animal park there may have had a few goats as well. Now, I love Sweden, but this place was lame...I can't believe Pulp actually played there. Though Sweden DOES give Pulp some good love...I remember going to a party and putting Dave Matthews Band on the stereo to sea of blank stares--no one had a clue who they were. Jarvis, however, got an immediate thumbs-up from my Stockholm friends--"Pulp! All right!" Yay for Sweden! A way cool amusement place in Scandinavia is Tivoli in Denmark. Bigger, more rides, and generally more fun. And Pearl Jam played there as well. On the Ben side of things, I am on a major Whatever And Ever Amen kick these days. After hearing Brick on the radio, WAEA is back on heavy rotation so I can hear all the songs they don't play live these days, like Selfless, Smoke, Kate, and Evaporated. What a darn good album...it hurts me that I almost forgot! - - Leigh 13 http://members.tripod.com/ex13 ------------------------------ End of The Rockford Files V2 #202 *********************************
